Her studies included creative writing and industrial psychology. Her early career was in personnel work in Philadelphia writing, producing and conducting supervisory and management training programs. In 1980, Fuller relocated to Durham, NH, and took a position at the University of New Hampshire as business manager for student dining. In 1989, at the age of 60, Fuller deserted the security of her business career to pursue a life-long dream to write full time. While living in Fitzwilliam, NH, in the 1960's, Fuller and her second husband owned and operated the 1796 Fitzwilliam Inn. It is the subject of her first book, A Horse in the Ladies' Room, based on the humorous experiences of inn keeping in the historic Mt. Monadnock Region of New Hampshire. A second book, Where Lame Donkeys Lie, traces three generations of her family's history triggered by discoveries made in a centuries-old heirloom desk inherited from her grandfather. She was married at 18 to a man who emotionally and sexually abused her. Her story, and the seven women instrumental in her journey to recovery, is chronicled in her third book, On the Wings of a Unicorn. Fuller's latest work, Sisters by Heart - Partners in Aging: A Memoir, is by far her most poignant, whimsical and revealing work yet. Mary Lou Fuller resides in Concord, NH, and has two grown children.
